Scottish rock group Primal Scream superimposed swastikas combined with Stars of David over the eyes of Netanyahu & former Israeli defense minister Gallant, as well as other global politicians, in on-stage graphics during a Monday night concert, leading a Jewish security group to file a police complaint.

They were playing at the historic Roundhouse venue in north London & performed their 2000 single “Swastika Eyes.”

Your chat profile/identity: a tar file.

Your social web app: a zip file.

chatmail.at and webxdc.org are spearheading ever new and more fun ways to deny power to servers and platform billionaires.

Unlike classic email servers, relays do not store user identities which solely live on end-user devices.There also is no encrypted value on the server like with Proton Mail or Signal. There are only relays, endless federating networks of relays to onboard safely :)

Neo-spoon meme (scene from matrix movie where neo looks at a child bending a spoon which eventually tells him "there is no spoon") with the following words top: "On which server is your account?" and below the bending spoon "there is no account."

Did you know that people in the US have been getting shorter since roughly the 1980s, a solid indicator of diminished access to nutrition, and that this trend continued under the Biden administration?

Did you know that homelessness went up during his presidency?

Deaths of despair from overdoses and suicides, too.

wait, why is a bit per second called a "baud"?

(looks it up)

...huh, so apparently the word "baud" is even older than computers, it was named after émile baudot, who invented a system of coding characters for the telegraph (which actually looks more like a predecessor to something like ASCII, and apparently also is the origin of CR and LF as separate symbols!)

I'm just brain storming this, please no one fret by the following question.

I kind of see this as old rental video stores. Right now they're telling us that we "own" things online. We don't own it. We're RENTING it at ownership prices. There is no "BUYING" anymore when it comes to digital content. They can remove it whenever they want.

If you had the following choices for consuming your content would you rather:

최근에 미리 계산해놓은 파일 Hash 값을 적어둔 메타데이터를 저장해놓을만한, 이론적으로 변조가 불가능한 스토리지를 찾고 있었는데

마침 IPFS가 딱 떠오른거임.

일전에 나름 활용처가 없을까해서 이런저런 시도를 해봤지만 느린 I/O 문제 등 일반 스토리지처럼 쓰기에는 문제점이 많아서 실제 활용은 포기했지만

NFT(대체 불가능 토큰) 발행에도 쓰일만큼 불변성 하나는 끝내주게 보장하거든.

머릿속에서 계획 세워지자마자 바로 실행에 옮김.

그리고 당초 의도했던 무결성 검사를 정말 깔끔하게 구현할 수 있었음. ㅠㅠ

I'm exploring what alternatives exist. I have something neat to share.

See the little checkmark on this repo?

codeberg.org/louwers/duckdb-bu

The of this repository is running on . Bridged with yojo yojo.emersion.fr/

I think each platform has its advantages, but definitely CI is a strong aspect of SourceHut and a weak point of Codeberg / . Both projects are based in the and are open source.

What is your experience with alternatives?
